WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden on Thursday is announcing sweeping new federal vaccine requirements affecting as many as 100 million Americans in an all-out effort to increase COVID-19 vaccinations and curb the surging delta variant that is killing thousands each week and jeopardizing the nation’s economic recovery.

The expansive rules mandate that all employers with more than 100 workers require them to be vaccinated or test for the virus weekly, affecting about 80 million Americans. And the roughly 17 million workers at health facilities that receive federal Medicare or Medicaid also will have to be fully vaccinated.

Biden is also signing an executive order to require vaccination for employees of the executive branch and contractors who do business with the federal government — with no option to test out. That covers several million more workers.

That’s a good start, but staying away from woke companies requires that we have someone else with whom to do business.

“When the Constitution functioned”

You do realize there is a basic flaw with documents like the US Constitution and Bill of Rights correct?

When these documents were drawn up and ratified there was a belief and understanding that the people that would live by and under those great words ALL loved our country.....that is unfortunately no longer true....and because of that we now have what we have.

“There are no checks, no balances. Our system hasn’t worked for decades now.”

True without a doubt.

“We the people ...” have, by in large, sat back or were directly involved in this becoming the case.

Welcome to the “Hunger Games”!

I don’t think “they” have ANY Good [accurate] Tests for either Covid spewing status or Acquired Natural Antigens.

What are some examples of other countries that have mandated vaccinations in the manner that Biden is proposing?

Canada?

Great Britain?

France?

China?

Japan?

This is fascinating. Biden is effectively giving up on encouraging or persuading people to get vaccinated, and is now going to use the power of the Federal government via labor regulations to mandate/force vaccinations.

Rightly or wrongly, I expect there will be more than a few people that will retire, resign, etc.

I also expect there will be people simply will not comply.

I think I would trust Steve Bannon to step up and do the job R’s fail to do.

I hope and pray many open their eyes as to what is going on.

“A minority party cannot fight a Presidents EO.”

“Please lean how your government works instead of just clinging to your politically bigoted ignorance.”

I thought Jon was being sarcastic and that you were mean.
2 things: 1) The Supreme court can knock down a law that is unconstitutional and 2)learn how to spell LEARN.

If everybody would use Ivermectin or HCQ we wouldn’t need vaccines, mandates, masks, lockdown, etc, and this CCP virus would disappear in a month.

Cbc already admitted their tests can’t tell the difference between covid and the plain old flu....that’s why moderns just announced they are coming out with a combination covid/flu shot.......Unfreakingbelievable.

Gov’t guidelines say the opposite. They have written all sorts of protections against lawsuits. Plus allowing others to sue for non-compliance (personal liability).
